We are seeking a Cloud Operations Lead with deep Azure and Microsoft 365 expertise to optimize, monitor, and secure our enterprise cloud environment.

This individual will oversee monitoring, backups, identity and access governance, and operational best practices across Azure services and M365 applications. The ideal candidate is highly organized, detail-oriented, and capable of bridging infrastructure, compliance, and engineering teams to ensure smooth day-to-day operations and long-term cloud maturity.

  • Manage, monitor, and optimize all Azure resources and services, ensuring availability, security, and cost efficiency.
  • Maintain and refine Azure Monitor, Application Insights, and Defender for Cloud dashboards and alerts.

  • Manage backup, restore, and disaster recovery processes; ensure policy compliance with cyber-insurance requirements.
  • Track and report Azure spending trends; recommend and implement cost optimization strategies.
  • Coordinate with Engineering on performance bottlenecks, capacity planning, and infrastructure changes.
  • Microsoft 365 & Identity Management

  • Governance & Compliance

  • Partner with Compliance and IT to support HIPAA, SOC 2, and HITRUST obligations.
  • Maintain accurate operational and security documentation.
  • Develop and document environment runbooks, DR procedures, and escalation workflows.
  • Collaboration & Support

  • Serve as the escalation point for complex cloud or M365 incidents.
  • Work closely with Product Engineering on environment reliability and release readiness.
  • Provide guidance and mentorship to junior team members on Azure and M365 operations.
  • Required Qualifications :

  • 4–6 years of experience in Azure Cloud Administration or Cloud Operations roles.
  • Expertise with Azure Monitor, Application Insights, Defender for Cloud, Entra ID, and M365 administration.

  • Medical, Dental, Vision Insurance.
  • Complimentary Life Insurance.
  • 401(k) Plan.
  • Optional Short-Term, Long-Term Disability, Critical Illness & Accident coverage.

  • Company-provided equipment (laptop, monitor, headset, etc.).
  • Work Environment & Requirements :

  • Work Arrangement : Hybrid  2-3 days a week.
